I was talking to someone yesterday and I was telling her that I write a lot on bipolar disorder. She asked what that is and I explained it to her. She said &#8220;What are bipolar people like?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She asked if that is like being crazy. I told her:<\/p>\n<p>People with bipolar are not crazy<br \/>Many people have bipolar<br \/>Many successful people have bipolar<br \/>Bipolar can be controlled and managed<br \/>and I went on and on and on.<\/p>\n<p>At the end, she said a good friend of mine has manic depression is that the same thing? I said yes and told her to check out my website <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bipolarcentral.com\">www.bipolarcentral.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>One of the things that I think that is a problem is this. Many times, you only hear people with bipolar associated with maybe some bad things. You don&#8217;t get to hear all the good things that people with bipolar do.<\/p>\n<p>I think this is because that the people who have it that do great things, don&#8217;t necessarily tell people they have it. For example, I have 2 people that work with me that have bipolar. I have known them for 5 years. They have done TREMENDOUS work. I haven&#8217;t ever noticed that had any signs or symptoms. These people are IMPRESSIVE. Anyway, I just found out they have bipolar this past year. I never would have known. So I could have gone through life thinking so and so is great but never knowing she had bipolar disorder.<\/p>\n<p>People ask me all the time, what&#8217;s it like to have over 10,000 people with bipolar disorder on a mailing list having your phone number? I tell them, it&#8217;s no problem. I have more problems in another business with JUST 40 people having my email and phone number.<\/p>\n<p>The most mean people that I deal with have nothing to do with my websites related to bipolar disorder. They actually work with me in a non related business.<\/p>\n<p>My entire point is this, many people know people with bipolar disorder, there are many success stories, and I think the stigma would be reduced if more people had more information on what bipolar is and isn&#8217;t and also knew of many the success stories.<\/p>\n<p>Dave<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yesterday I was out and about.
